Rico Verhoeven & Tony Bellew CLASH Over Oleksandr Usyk Defeat and Rematch

Fight Your Corner is back! This week, Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons are joined by kickboxing legend turned boxing sensation Rico Verhoeven following his hugely controversial defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Egypt. Rico opens up on the heartbreak of the stoppage, why he believes he was robbed of the chance to finish the fight, and how close he truly was to making combat sports history. Tony admits he got his prediction completely wrong, gives Rico huge credit for his performance, and explains why he believes the rematch with Usyk HAS to happen next. The trio break down the controversial ending, the scorecards, the game plan, and why Usyk struggled more than anyone expected. Rico also reveals what was going through his mind in the 11th round, responds to claims he would’ve been knocked out in the 12th, and explains why this was still the most enjoyable moment of his entire fighting career. Plus, Rico discusses his future in boxing, potential fights with Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois, why he believes he has “more tools in the toolbox”, and whether he can become a legitimate heavyweight world champion.

Tony Bellew & Tom Aspinall ERUPT Over UFC Fighter Pay & Usyk-Verhoven Preview

This week on Fight Your Corner, Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons are joined by UFC heavyweight star Tom Aspinall for one of the most explosive debates yet. Who’s the true baddest man on the planet? Is it the heavyweight champion in boxing or MMA? And what’s actually harder: making the jump from boxing to MMA… or the other way round? Tom and Tony compare eye injuries, while Tom reveals the mental torture of being unable to fight and why a clash with Jon Jones never happened. Meanwhile, Tony goes in on the pay UFC fighters receive and argues that combat sports stars deserve far more money. The lads also discuss the Ali Act in the US and why it could be vital that it's not overturned. There’s also huge fight talk as Tom and Tony break down Oleksandr Usyk v Rico Verhoeven and preview next month's massive UFC White House card, including Alex Pereira vs Ciryl Gane and Ilia Topuria vs Justin Gaethje. Tom shares whether Pereira or Gane would be the tougher fight for him and the guys debate who they think would win a fight between Eddie Hearn and Dana White.

Carl Froch & Tony Bellew CLASH over Anthony Joshua v Tyson Fury

Welcome to Fight Your Corner, in partnership with Midnite - the betting app that’s built different. Hosted by former world champion Tony Bellew and top broadcaster Charlie Parsons, this episode sees them joined by former world super-middleweight king Carl Froch for a heavyweight deep dive packed with sharp takes and proper debate. They kick things off with Tyson Fury’s comeback points win over Arslanbek Makhmudov but is the Gypsy King still the same force he once was? Tony explains why he believes the old Fury would’ve got the stoppage, before the panel turn to the blockbuster everyone wants: Fury v Anthony Joshua. Is it still THE fight, even without a world title on the line? There’s no ducking the big questions around AJ: his popularity, his mentality, and whether the “scars of battle” have taken something away. Tony makes the case for why he’d beat Daniel Dubois eight times out of ten, and the lads debate whether a bout with Kristian Prenga is the right kind of prep for Fury. Plus, does the shadow of those defeats to Oleksandr Usyk still linger in AJ's mind? Tony and Carl break down this weekend's clash between Fabio Wardley and Dubois: why the first four rounds could decide everything, and whether Dubois’ heart is still a valid question. They also debate whether Moses Itauma is already Britain’s number one heavyweight, if Jermaine Franklin was the right test, and what is the biggest question mark still hanging over his head.
